The gospel of Matthew says “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven”…there’s a lot to understand and interpret in the Bible… but they might want to revisit the 10 Commandments… “thou shalt not murder” seems pretty unambiguous. And finish with “Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’”

Once again, not ambiguous at all.

I have wondered where the source in the Bible this language gives millions of Christians and Jews the “right” to murder Gazans. Thank you.

I guess he doesn’t realize. WE ARE ALL HIS CHILDREN. WE ARE HIS CHOSEN ONES.

Every day we are given the opportunity to do right or wrong. It’s called choice.

So...you're saying that they SHOULD HAVE just stood in one place and accepted their DEATH? (And you call yourself a Christian...)

Ok. Lets concentrate on the facts. Shall we? Fact: Jesus has already established his kingdom in heaven. Fact: when Jesus came down to earth, he did away with the Hebrew laws and gave us new ones to follow. Fact: thou shalt not kill. (Of the famed 10 commandments )

Jesus is a character in a book. If he was never here…how would he come back? Seriously, those religions were written and commissioned by kings, emporers and male scholars. The king James version of the Bible was a commissioned re-writing of it in 1589 and along with it he wrote an equally extensive book on demonology. There are over 10,000 verifiable religions all made up by man to push a narrative and control the people. It's easier to have religion dictate your character when your unable to do so yourself.
